[Don_Papenburg]

I do not know if I got it right but first try it came back and told me the code was 20 letters I pared it down and sent it on its way . nothing. not even a you made it or an attaboy. or a you dummy that's wrong

[Old Greenhorn]

If it doesn't bring you to a logical step, or the end, it is not yet correct. Keep trying. I got a little frustrating for me too. Just keep at it and re-check your typing over and over. The instructions are accurate and if you get it right, you will move on. It is very clear when you wind up at the right place.

I have no idea what I was doing wrong on the first step but finally got it right. It was fun. Thanks Jeff, Tammy, and the folks at Logrite.  :new_year:

I'm fairly confident none of yous will call me a simpleton so I'll take a chance here. First time I've ever tried a contest but decided this one just might be simple enough for me.

1) i can only find 22 sponsors
2) 1 sponsor cannot  will not be found

What simple things am i doing wrong?

[Jeff]

You may be looking for the wrong sponsor. Because im a little bit evil, i left one out on purpose so you wouldnt know which one.. There are still 23 in the puzzle. Not sure how many you must find to reveal the secret message, or if i do, im not telling.

I finished last night, no printer so I had to figure a way to put the puzzle in a drawing program so I could circle the words as I found them.

Thanks and Merry Christmas to the Contest Sponsors

I was going to go to bed at midnight last night, but then I saw this contest.  So much for sleep!  The first puzzle was tricky because there isn't a clear list of the names you're looking for like in subsequent puzzles.  I was using the sponsors on the left side of the page, but one of those was not used, a couple had truncated names, and 4 had to be found elsewhere, or as in my case, I found them in the puzzle unintentionally.  What also threw in was in the second puzzle, the word Michigan was thrown in along with another word that wasn't used. 

I have to go write my theme now- "What I want for Christmas".  Merry Christmas to ALL!!!

[Tam-i-am]

So if you are not interested in the sexy single Danielle or Alissa, I am willing to substitute my famous brownie recipe for second prize.
